A STUDY OF THE MANUSCEIPT TEOANO. 



Oib, Lamat, and Ahaii, as shown by those not obliterated, the j^ears would 

 be as follows: 



Locating these on the same table (XVI) as shown by the groups sur- 

 rounded by dotted lines, we find tliat they follow each other in precisely the 

 same order as the other groups. As these groups all fit into the Ahaues as 

 I have divided them o£F, we have in this fact a strong presumption that our 

 division is correct; still, it is proper to state here, as will be shown here- 

 after, that all these periods will also fit into the Ahaues if the grand cycle 

 is divided according to the theory advanced by Senor Perez. Yet, even on 

 this plan, these periods begin with Cauac years and have the same num- 

 bers; the only difference between the plans, so far as this matter is con- 

 cerned, is that equivalents do not occupy precisely the 'same position in the 

 grand cycle, but overlap each other three years.
